Lily Martin

Lily Martin was an antagonist in Mabel. She has no known voice actress. Please be warned that this page contains discussion of abuse.



Seasons One-Six
Lily Martin was the daughter of Sally Martin and Esau. In her teenage years, she was in love with a faerie named Juniper, who she met in a field; Juniper fell in love with her when she laughed. However, they did not end up staying together, their relationship ending with Juniper predicting her death. Later on, she had a brief fling with a man named Thomas that resulted in Mabel Martin being born. She was abusive to Mabel. At some point she saw Mabel as she truly was (complicated-- possibly a changeling, possibly she just saw Luna Thorne). She died with broken bones in her throat when Mabel was four. Mabel has her last name rather than Thomas'.

It is canon that she wore lily flowers in her hair as a teenager, according to Letter from Juniper. It is also canon that she was a dabbler in alchemy.

Lily kept a journal detailing much of her life as a teenager. The journal is described as a "leather-bound spiral notebook" by Anna in Episode 8: The Freeze when she finds the journal on the kitchen counter. It is stuffed with clippings from old magazines, including one from a Virginia Slims ad that says, "you've come a long way, baby." Instead of a name on the back of the front cover, Anna finds a picture of roses from Sally's garden. In the journal, Lily describes a dream she had from the perspective of a bird. When explaining why she hesitated to run away with Juniper, one of her reasons for staying was that her friend, Jo, would be waiting for her at the bus stop. The journal also includes in it's pages a drawing of the alchemical symbol for mercury. This symbol was tied back to the Hand of Mysteries by Mabel Martin and Becca De La Rosa during a live event where Mabel Martin mentioned that the Hand of Mysteries might be a good avenue of research as it contained "pictorial references."

Season Seven
Sally Martin completed a ritual called "On The Basis of Exchange" before Lily was born in order to clone her older brother, Phillip Martin, and rebirth him. This clone ended up being Lily herself.

Lily is heard talking to Mabel during an unknown time period in Ashes, Ashes. It sounds like she is saying "it is my house-- it was always my house, you need to leave."
